Hi, I am Melissa. I am currently working to become a UX designer or researcher and Carnegie Mellon’s MHCI program. Before setting my mind on becoming a UX designer/researcher, I tried a handful of other design related fields. Previously, I studied Industrial Design at Georgia Tech and that’s where I discovered my interest in problem solving. I was also exposed to architecture during that time and that’s how I discovered my interest in small scale interactions. Interior design is another field that I experienced with. That’s when I realized the importance of effective and accurate communication. Now, I believe that human-centered design lays the foundation of successful product and service development. My hope is to find a place where I can contribute my skills and testify my design belief.
